Remember what I always say about the software inside any hardware device? Probably not, but since I don't like to repeat myself, let me put it this way - no matter how good your hardware may be, software updates can always squeeze a bit more out of it!

Even if you're not a MacBook user, here's the interesting description - "This update contains software bug fixes for precision aluminum unibody enclosure MacBook and MacBook Pro notebook computers introduced in October 2008." Pretty interesting, don't you think? They put it like the body needs that software, and not the hardware inside it...

This is it, for now. I know that only a few chosen ones have the latest MacBooks already, so you should write down in your "to do" list "to update my precision aluminum unibody enclosure MacBook...as soon as I get it," don't you think?
